When you go past a Cornfield…

The weekend before last we had a rather lazy weekend. We ended up going for a late afternoon picnic as the weather was so nice. I stumbled across this rather lovely big open meadow with cows near where we live and thought that would make for a nice picnic spot. It was one of those funny stories that are only funny if you were there experiencing it, but all of a sudden about 50 cows starting edging closer towards us. Mr E kept saying ‘Oh cows are harmless’ but they kept getting nearer and nearer and were just staring at us. We had over 100 little pairs of little beady eyes just never once glancing away from us. In the end we actually got a bit nervous so we left and ate our picnic hurriedly on the edge of the field. Definitely not one of my brightest ideas. But as we were heading home we saw this field so me being me asked my little threesome whether they wouldn’t mind stopping for a quick photo session. The light was golden and really just rather lovely.

It’s funny how photos you stop on a whim to snap in just a few minutes end up being nice. I really love all of these of my little crew…I was telling Mads off for something and this is LL’s ‘Mads you are naughty’ face. She loves to tell her off!

Ah this is gorgeous. I have just read this with Baby and she asked who it was so I told her, then every time a new picture came up she would say who was in it! 🙂 Think she might love your girls 🙂 LL looks so like you in the last picture xx

Such beautiful pictures Katie, I think my husband would look at me as if I’d gone mad if I suggested we stop somewhere for a quick photo shoot, although he’s possible they worlds worst photographer so that may have something to do with it.
Love the pic of LL on her own pointing, gorgeous xx

Oh I love corn fields so much. I much prefer them to a rape seed field.
We have a field opposite us and the last few years they have crown corn, this year I can’t work out what it is!
These photos are beautiful xx

i love that you can get them to all cooperate with a spontaneous photo shoot, if I tried to do this with Lucas they would all have his hand in front of the camera and his face screwed up while he shouts ‘no photos’! It’s so lovely that you can stop off and make some gorgeous memories, lots of beautiful smiles to look back on xx

What a gorgeous spot to take photos! The light against the golden corn is just idyllic! Love the photo where !ads doesn’t look too impressed 😉 they’re so good at having their photos taken. At only 2, Freddie has just decided he would much rather be in control and run off with my camera than cooperate and have his photo taken.. Xx

Cows aren’t harmless! They’re actually quite dangerous – especially the beef breeds, which tend not to be so well-handled. I think they’re lovely to look at, but I’m always very wary about venturing into a field with them and probably wouldn’t with little ones, to be honest.

These pictures are just perfect. That gorgeous golden light goes so well with the corn.

Aw these photos are just so beautiful! I love an impromptu photo stop. Lovely corn fields too. Spoilt with beautiful scenery where you live you always find the most stunning places to take photographs. x
